Praise for Unfreeze Yourself:
"Unfreeze Yourself is not just another book about how bad things are. Instead, it's a joyful, re-energizing read for busy people like you who don't want to be left out of a growing, life-giving movement of 'sacred activism’. Being unfrozen feels so good, largely because it's about loving our children and grandchildren. Christine Penner Polle will help you find your own way there." Mardi Tindal, former Moderator of The United Church of Canada.
“As parents, our love for our children is unconditional; without thought, we regularly put their futures and their lives before ours. But too often the reality of climate change paralyses our actions, our hopes, our love and our future dreams for our children. With her wise counsel and supportive, practical simple plans of action,
Christine helps us “unfreeze,” reactivating our unconditional love. She reminds us why we can’t fail, and with her guidance, we won’t.” Harriet Shugarman, Founder and Executive Director, ClimateMama
"There is a paradigm shift coming and it's good news for us as individuals and the planet. If you want to know what that new world looks like and how we get there, read this book!" Shaun Loney, Ernst & Young Entrepreneur of the Year (2015), co-founder of 10 green economy social enterprises, and author of "BUILD Prosperity: Energizing Manitoba's Local Economy"
"Christine Penner Polle has penned a book that should be required reading for every American adult, especially parents who, by definition, have the most invested in our collective future! Unfreeze Yourself is the antidote to paralysis as Ms. Penner Polle shares her journey from climate avoider to climate activist. This book will warm your heart, stimulate your mind and, most important, will walk you through the steps needed to get you moving forward to be part of the solution. Bravo and thank you!!” Betsy Rosenberg, Environmental Radio Host
